Up until that time mobile devices (mostly smartphones) were primarily for phone calls and emails, as far as the enterprise was concerned. But with a larger screen size, the iPad (and now other emerging tablets) expanded the idea of the mobile device as a content consumption tool. And enterprises started to take notice in other ways as well.](https://www.acronis.com/en/blog/posts/making-mobile-device-true-business-platform-introducing-new-mobilecho/)

Where once the corporate operating system world was ruled by Microsft servers – which many of our customers do still rely on heavily – Linux is increasingly becoming a great way for businesses to get high performance with the cost savings benefits of open source. Were this not true, developers today wouldn’t have so many great distributions to choose from including SUSE, CentOS, Red Hat and more.](https://www.acronis.com/en/blog/posts/nscaled-provides-fuller-disaster-recovery-linux/)

That was my thought when I started a set of blog posts describing the new computing trends in a simple way. Here is another trend that I would like to simplify – Bring Your Own Device (BYOD).](https://www.acronis.com/en/blog/posts/difficult-made-simple-byod/)

The fact is that until Acronis Backup & Recovery for vCloud came along, no solutions existed that would allow tenants to backup and recover their virtual machines on their own, with self-service, without manual operations from vCloud administrators.](https://www.acronis.com/en/blog/posts/real-self-service-backup-vcloud/)

In the not-so-distant past, company information, files and data were confined to the four walls of the organization. After 5 p.m., and on weekends and holidays, this information was largely inaccessible to the average employee. Now, the availability of company data is seen in an entirely different light, with employees accessing files from three or four different devices any day of the week.](https://www.acronis.com/en/blog/posts/beyond-mdm-and-mfm-whats-next-byod/)

And, according to our 2013 Data Protection Trends Research, it seems to be the attitude many IT professionals have taken towards the bring-your-own-device (BYOD) movement.](https://www.acronis.com/en/blog/posts/byod-best-or-worst-thing-thats-happened-channel-market/)

But, right now, a lot of companies are struggling with these bring-your-own-device (BYOD) habits. Our 2013 Data Protection Trends Research, which surveyed more than 4,300 IT professionals around the world, found that nearly 60 percent of companies don’t have BYOD policies in place. This can certainly present security issues and risks for data leakage, but BYOD trends also encourage something else: bring-your-own-cloud (BYOC).](https://www.acronis.com/en/blog/posts/when-managing-byod-companies-shouldnt-forget-about-byoc/)

But along with the benefits, bring your own device (BYOD) opens the door to risks, including security vulnerabilities, data leakage, compliance and potential liability issues.The magnitude of the problem is big, considering millions of these devices are lost, stolen or misplaced every year (120 thousand phones were lost in Chicago taxi cabs alone last year…).](https://www.acronis.com/en/blog/posts/simple-steps-network-security-device-passwords-and-key-locks/)

As employees increasingly use personal devices like smartphones, tablets and Mac® computers in the workplace, they may unknowingly be putting company data at risk without the proper BYOD policies and training. And, while these data protection issues and concerns aren’t new, companies are surprisingly still in the very early stages of protecting mobile data.](https://www.acronis.com/en/blog/posts/acronis-launches-2013-data-protection-trends-research/)

But, the MDM market is still evolving at a feverish pace. Just take a look at the average employee’s bring-your-own-device (BYOD) habits. Smartphones, tablets and laptops are all part of one big mix during the work day. Thanks to the growth and of mobile devices and the emergence of more mobility apps the needs of the mobile enterprise and their users is quickly evolving from being device-centric to being data-centric.](https://www.acronis.com/en/blog/posts/byod-balancing-act/)

In an effort to lower licensing costs by introducing competition for their hypervisor footprint, many organizations may be unwittingly taking on the potential burden of added infrastructure management, higher costs and increased backup complexity of their virtualized environment. On the other hand, if data centers had the ability to transparently migrate data from one hypervisor to another, many of these issues would be eliminated. As a result, any-to-any hypervisor recovery is becoming a critical requirement for data centers looking to drive down costs and increase flexibility.](https://www.acronis.com/en/blog/posts/any-any-hypervisor-image-recovery/)

But, the recent boom in mobile technology – along with dramatic improvements in VDI – has changed the landscape a bit. With BYOD becoming more prevalent, some are pushing VDI as a solution to access their work “computer” from any device and any location.](https://www.acronis.com/en/blog/posts/what-vdi-solutions-are-overlooking-byod-world/)
